MTL - After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King-Chapter 24 fishing with candor
Chapter 24 Fishing and Straightforwardness
"It looks very similar to the fertilizer I bought."
Vera, who said so, stood outside with Ila, Satan Ye, and Xilina, watching the goblins use earth-made fertilizer...that is, dilute it with water and sprinkle it on the soil.
If you fertilize before planting plants, you don’t need to worry too much. You can directly mix the fertilizer with the soil and plow it again to ensure the soil is fertile, but now it is different.
Fertilizing during the process of maintaining crops is called topdressing. Fertilization in this way is best blended with water first, otherwise it may cause crop death.
As for the specific ratio and fertilization method, Ira is not clear.
To put it bluntly, he has never really visited the farmlands of the empire, except for the battlefield... His energy is spent on dealing with those **** nobles in the court.
But the monsters, whether they are goblins or goblins, have used fertilizer before, so now they also know how to use the manufactured fertilizer.
This is their wisdom.
"Of course it does. The empire's original understanding of fertilizers is that after the excrement is poured into the land, I... well, anyway, many years ago, I improved the fertilizers to what it is now."
Ira said so, he looked at the three people who watched the goblins and goblins work under the warm winter sun, and he said: "The process of fertilizing is nothing to watch, I..."
Ira, who was about to say something, saw a working goblin staggering and fell towards the ground. He rushed up and knocked the goblin that was about to fall at a speed that no one could react to. goblin hold up.
After helping the goblin regain its balance, Ira looked at the goblin's thin face even in the goblin group, and analyzed: "Malnutrition and overwork?"
"Goo... Lord Ira."
Goblin looked very uncomfortable, he said with some fear, took two steps back, and said: "Although I know you are now... no, I'm sorry, but..."
This goblin hesitated, he wasn't afraid of Ira because of the difference in status, after all, he only had respect and respect for Satan and the others.
There is no doubt that the opponent has seen Iraq on the battlefield.
This phenomenon is very common in the Demon King’s Territory. Almost everyone who has been on the battlefield seems to have suffered from a disease called [Islamophobia], so seeing Ira’s face still shudders.
"Master Ira"
"He's Stirring"
"The Man of Fertilizer"
"one of"
"we've already"
"Let him rest"
"..."
What the goblins mean is that this goblin is one of the monsters they arranged to participate in turning the fertilizer. Originally, he didn't need to participate in this fertilization, but now he is working voluntarily.
No one urges, no one persecutes, and no one beats with a whip, but you are working. Is this considered stupid? Or, is the king who leads them really worth doing?
At least...the latter in their eyes.
Ira looked at Satan Ye and Xilina who showed concern, he couldn't help chuckling, and then looked at Vera who was calm and bored... That's right! Such an attitude towards civilians is the normal imperial people!
"Ugh…"
Ira couldn't help but sigh, and then Vera [Ira, why are you sighing? ], he shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm thinking about other things now."
"Huh? What?"
Satan Ye asked, blinking her eyes, flapping her wings behind her back, waiting for Ira's words, her appearance was too obedient, she didn't look like a demon king at all.
"I was thinking about fishing."
Ira said this, and he cited an example: "In my impression, in general coastal cities, aquatic products will become a source of food for a city, but this does not seem to be the case in the Demon King's Land."
To this, Vera nodded. She was born on the seaside of the empire, and she kept eating sea fish and kelp in her childhood memories. However, because of the good economic conditions, she also ate a lot of meat.
"Fishing? Fishing has always been done by Naga, murlocs, and Gorgon before, and then the fish were enshrined in the Demon King's Land. The ports of the Demon King's Land are ports of war and trade. fish."
Satan Ye said, she thought for a while, her eyes lit up and she said: "By the way, we can catch fish first for meat, right? Anyway, the trade hasn't restarted yet, and the war is almost over, can it?"
I don’t know why, but Satan Ye, as the devil king, still asked【Can I? ] came to ask Xilina and Yila for their opinions, who is the devil king and who is the courtier?
Regarding this, Vera spread her hands very simply, and said, "Actually, Ira, that's what he meant...just to respect your authority as the devil king, and to ask you for instructions."
Saying so, Vera poked Ila's waist helplessly, and under his suspicious gaze, she continued: "Besides, in order to maintain your authority, Ira will definitely not choose to say it in the morning, but to talk to you like this now." You said it secretly."
What does it mean to speak in secret... How can I say it should be called offering advice?
For Ira who was speechless, Vera sighed with emotion and said, "Oh, so you and Isabella are really awkward. You obviously trust each other, but you can't trust each other."
"..."
Ira was silent for a while. He knew that he might not be able to fully explain to Vera, so he just said simply: "Some things in the court cannot be done through mutual trust."
"I trust Isabella to trust me wholeheartedly, but I also know that she cannot fully trust me, because she needs to be responsible for the empire; Isabella trusts me and trusts her, but she knows that she cannot let my The strength is stronger, that is, my power is the power she can use at any time."
Ira said this, this is a very complicated knowledge, he didn't expect Vera to understand this at all... But to put it simply, as a courtier, he needs to do what a courtier should do.
"What, you are talking nonsense. Since Isabella knows that you are loyal to her and the empire, is there any need to suppress you? Your logic is totally wrong..."
Vera said, she couldn't figure out what "responsible to the empire" was at all, she waved her hand in annoyance, and said, "Anyway, there's no need to think about so many things here, right?"
"The Lord Demon King is also stupid, easy to control." Vera said so.
Satan Ye: "Huh?"
Regarding Vera's words, after listening to Satan Ye's doubts, Ira looked at Satan Ye, then at the loyal Xilina who pretended not to hear, and then looked back at Wei La. pull.
"Indeed, maybe I should gradually try to be blunt and frank, after all, Satan Yeh is silly and cute."
Ira seems to agree with Vera's point of view.
Satan Ye (How come no one speaks for me? Sirina, why don’t you say something nice about me? Do I really look silly and cute? No matter, just say something.
"Meow meow meow?!"
